“Charlotte is always so good. We have used her several times for long weekends, daycare, etc.. She communicates with us and sends us lots of pictures which I love. I couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Shannon is fantastic! Her home is immaculate! She took such great care of my baby boy! She frequently sent updates and took initiative to get my dog wet food when he wasn’t eating well. Will absolutely use again!”
“John was wonderful with our elderly dog. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. John was above and beyond our expectations, he even gave us some new ideas to keep our dog more active. I don’t think our dog was ready to leave, thought he was on vacation too. I highly recommend John you won’t be disappointed.”
“Paula is absolutely wonderful! We couldn't have left our fur baby in better hands. She cared for him flawlessly, provided lots of snuggles and love, and gave us regular update with photos. We will definitely be using her again as our pet's home away from home!”
“They looked like they had a great time! Was given plenty of attention and treats. Did not appear overly hungry or thirsty when we brought them back home telling me they were given plenty of food and water. Liked that Lydia has a fenced in back yard and appreciated the daily picture updates and video without me having to ask first. Was also able to get us in last minute and was very responsive. Would highly recommend!”

Overall, they’re great dog sitters but also genuinely great people. I’m so glad I found them!”
“Our first time having Ashley and family board our puppy and we are happy. Our puppy, Luna, was very happy there and got a lot of playing in and slept very well on our way to Northern VA.

She took care of my two boys like they was here very own, and they absolutely took to her, she gave more that a few daily updates, and that was very very comforting, and when Lawdy returned them to us, you could absolutely tell Brutus and Zeus was happy. They would run to us then back to her, I can’t say enough thank you’s to her… we highly recommend her and I will be using her services in the future”

Melissa was super attentive to our post-surgery boy's needs while we were away. I got updates every day with his progress. She even introduced him to new things. He was quite the happy dog when we got home. We'll definitely call on her again when we can't take Kai with us.
We had a wonderful experience with Wanda and Stephan! Our stay did change from a 2 week to a 3 day stay but W&S were so supportive and helpful and sent so many photos of our animals. We really appreciate you and feel calm and at ease knowing you looked after our little four legged spoiled ones. Will definitely use you guys again. Thank you so very very much
